Stress management: Easy ways to manage stress

HEALTH AND BODY CARE

EASY WAYS TO MANAGE STRESS

What is stress

Stress is the reaction of body to a change that requires a physical, mental or emotional adjustment or response. It is caused by Three factors:

1. The demand on a person's physical and mental abilities;
2. The ability of that person to to meet the demand; and
3. The strength of his preference to fulfill the demand.

For example if a person is required to do something (Demand for activity) which will bring certain desired results (strength of his preference) but he/she is unable, completely or partially, to perform that activity, he/she will feel stress.

However, if someone is unwilling to achieve a desired result, no matter how much load of demand is or his inability he/she will not be stressed.

I thought the above definition has clarified you, regarding the concept of stress. 

Before going further let me provide you mental, physical, emotional and behavioural symptoms of stress (At a Glance).

HOW TO MANAGE STRESS

Time management: is very necessary to control stress.

5.
Treat yourself once a week with a massage, dinner out, the movies: Moderation is the key. 
 
6. Forgive others: don't hold grudges and be tolerant -- not everyone is as capable as you.

22. Verify information from the source before exploding.

23. Worry less, it really does not get things completed better or quicker.

 
24. Understand things from the other person's point of view.
 
 25. Zest for life: Each day is a gift, smile and be thankful that you are a part of the bigger picture.

LAST WORD: 

If something can be solved there is no need to take tension, if something can't be, why to take tension :)
